Iphone and watch on different verizon accounts

My wife has a verizon iphone and number through her company, which she uses for personal and business use (this is ok with her company). However, i want to get her a cellular apple watch because she doesnt always carry her phone on her and I want her to be able to send/receive calls from her watch without her phone on her. I have a verizon account.

​

Will the verizon apple watch (on my verizon account) be able to work fine with my wife's verizon iphone (which is on her company's account)?

You can set it up with Family Setup. Then it would be a standalone Watch, and you can call its number. However, several functions are unavailable under Family Setup. See here for more info: https://www.verizon.com/support/knowledge-base-234270/

If someone calls her phone, will it ring on the watch even if she doesnt have her phone with her?

Not under Family Setup unless she activated conditional call forwarding.

Yes it'll work. Apple watches can be activated as stand alone devices now.
